Why do I need this bond?
Burial and funeral merchandise dealer bonds in Georgia ensure that the state and owners of cemeteries in which the dealer does work are protected against damages and other financial loss if the principal (dealer) or his/her servants, agents, employees, contractors or subcontractors conduct unlawful, unethical or faulty work. If a claim is filed against the bond, the principal must reimburse the surety for any money paid in the settlement.

What’s the fine print?
Georgia burial and funeral merchandise dealer surety bonds remain in full force and effect unless they are canceled, and the bond does not become void when a single claim is filed against it. Instead, several claims can be made until the full bond amount has been exhausted.
A notary public must acknowledge the principal’s signature on the bond form.
